Selected Myanmar students will win full sponsorship to join a study tour in Hong Kong for 10 days, during which they will have an opportunity to get a taste of tertiary education in Hong Kong, and gain insights into different global issues through their first overseas experience. Full sponsorship will be provided to cover all necessary travelling expenses – including air tickets, visa fee, insurance, accommodation and the daily expenses in Hong Kong.

During the program, participants will have ample opportunities to interact with Hong Kong students and even university professors to learn and exchange ideas about different global issues in the context of Hong Kong and Myanmar. After the visit to Hong Kong, participants are expected to apply what they have learned and gained during the Program to bring positive changes to their own communities in Myanmar.

Eligibilities:

18-25 year old Myanmar university students (Bachelor or Master) or recent university graduates who:

Can communicate in English effectively;

Cannot afford to travel outside of Myanmar without sponsorship; and

Already hold or will have obtained a valid Myanmar passport by mid-March 2018

Interested students should be responsive through email and Facebook to facilitate effective communication, hold a valid Myanmar passport, or be prepared to apply for and obtain one by mid-March 2018, and be prepared to attend a video interview between 8-18 March if selected.
